HISTORY IN
THE MAKING:
A mammoth
banner was
unfurled
from the
Murphy
Center soon
after senior
wide
receiver
Justin Hardy
made his
350th career
catch during
East
Carolina's
34-6 victory
over Tulane
on Saturday
at
Dowdy-Ficklen
Stadium. The
play pushed
Hardy past
the previous
NCAA FBS
career
receptions
record set
by
Oklahoma's
Ryan Broyles
in 2011.
Hardy hauled
in nine
passes for
104 yards
against the
Green Wave
and finished
the day with
355 career
receptions.
